Gamer System in Campione - Chapter 18
🕑 Added 2021-11-17 03:02:23 +0000 UTCThe sword gradually became warmer in the Sun King's hands as it drank the sunlight, becoming stronger, faster, less constrained by the laws of the world and, in turn, feeding Ozymandias the power and skill, making his strokes faster, more masterful and his body more used to wielding the long sword.
Ozymandias felt the sword begging to release her, but even so he held back so as not to end up destroying the building.
Scattering the Sword Ozymandias could feel the Sword's disappointment at not being used anymore.
But with a sigh, Ozymandias turned and saw Alice with an amused look and another middle-aged man with blond hair and a stoic face looking on with a smirk.
"They could have warning when they arrived," Ozymandias said with a sigh.
"We didn't want to interrupt your training to get used to your power Rei," Alice said in a playful and playful way.
"Your Majesty, how are you feeling? Has your body recovered from the battle?" The old man bowed: "My name is Duke Goddodin, Alice's father. Nice to meet you."
"Your Majesty, thank you for taking care of the god, Sir Gawain on the White Cliff of Dover. Thanks to his quick intervention, we were able to contain the damage" Alice mimicked her father by bowing politely.
"Oh, it's nothing. After all, I'm a Campione. It's my duty to look after the [Heretic Gods]," said Ozymandias with a sigh.
"Hmm... You're right Alice. He's a pretty modest person when you meet him face to face" Goddodin smiled slightly as he looked at King Sun, as if measuring me for something.
"See, Dad? He's nothing like that Alexander. However, although he acts like a gentleman, he seems to let out all his frustration during battle, adopting a person who is like a king" Alice replied primly as they both continued the conversation as if I were an observation doll.
Ozymandias just sighed at that, he knew he let himself be carried away during the battle.
Shaking her head Alice turned to Ozymandias.
"I'm glad you mostly healed, Mr. Ozymandias" Alice said with a smile, "You were unconscious and seriously injured on the Cliff of Dover when I was able to get to you. Though I managed to use a spell. of healing on you, I had problems, as your body naturally prevented any external magic from coming in contact with your skin with its superior magical resistance. Even touching you was difficult, as my body was… "So she held back to speak, as if he had said something he did not want to tell.
"What happened to your body Alice?" asked Ozymandias as he put on a T-shirt.
As far as he remembered Alice had some problem with her body, but he couldn't quite remember what it was.
Alice looked like she was going to answer, but Goddodin was the one who spoke first.
"Make no mistake, Alice. Your body was tense under the pressure of having to make contact with his body for a long time for the healing spell to take effect, and it was about to disappear" Goddodin interrupted with a frown at his daughter .
Alice huffed and pouted at her father before looking up at my alarmed expression.
"What happened?" asked Ozymandias narrowing his eyes.
Goddodin shuddered slightly with his gaze but quickly nodded.
"It's just that my daughter's form when she was around you was an ectoplasm, controlled by her mind to act like a human. As she needed to have contact with her skin, which is resistant to all forms of magic, she had problems to keep her in shape for the healing ritual to affect her body"
"Dad, please don't tell me everything about me. Or if you're going to talk about me, couldn't you pretend I'm not here in front of you?" Alice glared at Duke Goddodin, her face unhappy with the amount of information Duke Goddodin shared: "And why are you telling him this confidential information anyway?"
"Sorry, sorry, I'll make it up to you somehow later" Goddodin replied, "But when I saw this young man, I can't imagine him being really bad. I have a premonition that this young man can be trusted. Besides, Isn't it time for Witenagemot to make an ally with a Campione on his own? If we are to be on his side, it is imperative that he know everything he can about us."
"But still…" Alice pouted and turned away from her father, her arms crossed to signal her displeasure.
"But why was she using ectoplasm to make contact with me yesterday?" asked Ozymandias. Was she somewhere else now? Is the person in front of her a human now, or was she also an ectoplasm?"
Goddodin sighed. "My daughter... Well, her ability as Hime-Miko, a priestess of royal origin is stronger than everyone else in the world, with no other Hime-Miko being able to match her. She even has a rank title. Tallest Witch in Heaven! Not only was her psychic awareness and telekinesis exceptional, she also possessed the disposition for spiritual vision and prophecy. She could even converse with the gods occasionally, but this ability corroded her body, making her extremely fragile "
"Looks like you're bragging dad," Alice said huffing and blushing slightly as she placed a hand on her dad's shoulder.
"So…" Ozymandias began: "Your power is so strong that your body can't keep up with your power, and that harms your body?"
"In layman terms, yes, that's correct" Goddodin nodded.
The father-daughter pair looked for a while at the Seventh Campione who seemed to be deep in thought.
"Well..." Ozymandias said contemplatively, "Although it's a gamble, I think I might have a way to cure Alice"
This drew Goddodin's eyes to King Sun in shock.
"Which!?" Goddodin yelled, jumping towards Ozymandias and grabbing his shoulder for the look on his face, his face completely serious with his eyes dilated like crazy as he began to breathe harder: "You're serious!"
"Oh my, here comes Dad's crazed side, born out of overprotection due to my frail body" Alice sighed as she put a hand to her face. With her calm response, it looked like she had given up on the idea that there might be a cure for an illness. Or it could have been her exhaustion with her father's overprotection.
Ozymandias, knowing her, theorized that it was the second.
Goddodin's face also turned to Alice so quickly that I thought it seemed to break: "Alice! Although your condition hasn't improved, even with hundreds of doctors from various backgrounds trying to find a cure, it's too late to give up!"
"Dad…" Alice's face turned into a frown as she looked at her father.
"Anyway, do you have a method?" Goddodin looked at Campione again with ferocity in his eyes, his arms starting to shake Ozymandias' body as if he were trying to elicit the answer from King Sun.
"Well it's a gamble and there's a chance it won't work, but is it worth a try?" asked Ozymandias, after all he had never tried this method before.
"Yes! It's worth a try! Though hundreds of doctors have failed, it's a Campione who's trying this time! You guys are like cheaters in this society of normal men! Surely a disease or two can't even stand up to you! Forward!" Goddodin yelled as he started to drag Ozymandias towards the door, making him feel a little irritated by his shove.
Alice just sighed in resignation at her fatherly attitude as she followed the two of them.
